Forty Five
When the light grew dim 'round the edge of your cheek
I knew I had lost the war
For your heart, for myself
For anyone else who has ever met this side of me
When I'm not hellbent on destroying myself
I'm trying to find another way out
Of this cage called my head
Where my thoughts of discontent
Are steadily burying me
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
When the seatbelt light was enabled I was looking for some cables
To McGuyver a noose 'round my neck
When it all came down to fight or take flight
I was burying my head in the sand
When the flight attendants came 'round, I was busy holding down
The tears fighting with my eyes
I knew things would change, but I can't disengage
From 30, 000 feet off the ground
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
I knew I had lost the war
For your heart, for myself
For anyone else who has ever met this side of me
When I'm not hellbent on destroying myself
I'm trying to find another way out
Of this cage called my head
Where my thoughts of discontent
Are steadily burying me
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
When the seatbelt light was enabled I was looking for some cables
To McGuyver a noose 'round my neck
When it all came down to fight or take flight
I was burying my head in the sand
When the flight attendants came 'round, I was busy holding down
The tears fighting with my eyes
I knew things would change, but I can't disengage
From 30, 000 feet off the ground
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
I've got 45 miles of nerves in this body
And you have stepped on every last one
You love to turn your back on me
If there's a will tonight and there's a way to leave
And you have slammed the door
And thrown away the keys
But I'm here, same as I've ever been
